Log message:
Fix grub-install problem reported in PR 22049 by Soren Jacobsen.
While here, convert to USE_NEW_TEXINFO, and make it compile.
[freestanding, but using nested functions; gcc emits __enable_exec_stack,
which lives in libgcc, but is not linked because the program is supposed
to be freestanding. Provide dummy __enable_exec_stack function.]
Bump PKGREVISION.

Log message:
Replace uses of -fno-builtin with -ffreestanding.  -ffreestanding also
implies -fno-builtin, but also conveys additional information ("not in
a hosted environment").

This is 1/2 of the fix for PR toolchain/19265.

Log message:
Update grub to 0.93.  Changes in this version:

* Define the behavior of the boot loader when the load end address is
  zero and the bss end address is zero in the Multiboot Specification.
  Also, add the support into GRUB.
* Finally, we have a Bug Tracking System! Now the preferable way to
  report bugs is to use the BTS rather than sending e-mail to bug-grub.
  See <http://bugcomm.enbug.org/?project=grub&mode=project>, for more
  details.
* The appendix "FAQ" in the manual is removed. See the GNU GRUB FAQ on
  the web <http://www.gnu.org/software/grub/grub-faq.html> instead.
* The terminal handling code is rewritten radically, and many bugfixes
  are made at the same time.
* The command "color" is effective even in the command-line.
* The command "terminal" takes two new options, ``--no-echo'' and
  ``--no-edit''. If you specify ``--no-echo'', GRUB won't echo back
  input characters. If you specify ``--no-edit'', GRUB will disable the
  BASH-like editing feature. These options are useful when using an
  intelligent terminal (such as the comint mode in GNU Emacs).
* The utility ``grub-md5-crypt'' prompts to retype a password and checks
  if the passwords match.
* Support for booting Linux is rewritten, so GRUB now supports
  large-EBDA systems.
* The menu interfaces supports Page Up, Page Down, and Right Key.
* New command "terminfo", for vt100-incompatible terminals.
* New options, ``-D'', ``-g'' and ``-m'' are supported for FreeBSD.

   2002-04-30 14:09:57 by Thomas Klausner | Files touched by this commit (2)
Log message:
Update to 0.92:
* The command "displaymem" uses only hex digits for consistency.
* The netboot code goes back to the progress bars instead of dots, for
  the notation of data transfers. And, that is displayed only in debug
  mode, that is to say, nothing is displayed by default. Remember that
  you can turn on debug mode via the command "debug".
* The command "help" doesn't show all the available commands by default,
  when no argument is specified. Rarely used commands (such as
  "testload") and useless commands in interactive use (such as
  "savedefault") are hidden. If you want to see help messages for those
  commands, specify the new option "--all".
* A built-in, `more'-like pager is added. When a command prints too many
  lines to fit the screen, GRUB waits until you hit return key. This
  feature can be turned off by the new command "pager".
* The command "terminal" accepts a new option, \ 
"--lines=LINES". You can
  set the maximum number of lines arbitrarily with this option. If you
  don't specify it, the maximum number will be 24.
* The command "terminal" accepts another new option, \ 
"--silent". You can
  suppress the "Press any key to continue" message with this option.
* The mem= option for Linux is recognized and used to limit the maximum
  address of initrd.
* A fallback entry is executed immediately after a default entry,
  without prompting a user's intervention, as the manual has ever been
  saying.
* The utility ``grub-install'' makes sure that GRUB images have been
  written to a physical disk completely. To assist this feature, a new
  command "dump" is added.
